I DO NOT Like the GOP!! "Green Eggs & Ham" Remix

Found this on Face book

By Edward Z.....


Do you like the GOP?
I do not like them. No siree!

I do not like them in the House,
where endlessly they whine and grouse.
And in the Senate, maddening,
they filibuster everything.

Don't like them on the internet,
or lying on my TV set.
I do not like them so far right,
I do not like that they're ALL white.

I do not like them when they wink.
It scares me when they try to think.
I do not like their budget cuts.
I do not like that they are nuts!

If they're the face of Uncle Sam,
then Uncle Sam don't give a damn!
They like Tea, and green money,
but why, oh why, don't they like me?

They will not help me keep my house.
They do not like my same-sex spouse.
They don't like any news but FOX,
or black folks at the ballot box.
They don't believe in warming air.
They REALLY hate Obamacare!

They sham and slam and send out spam.
So sure I am, it's all a scam.
It's all for them, but none for me.
I do NOT like the GOP.

Glad you're here! That asshole certainly inspired some great beauty with his arrogant, pigheaded ugliness!

When I saw comments online about that idiot reading “Green Eggs and Ham,” I was sure it was a joke.

“Good one! The GOP is trying to convince people they hate Obamacare because they know if they try it, they’ll like it. So that book is a perfect metaphor for . . . what? He’s really actually reading that book?”

Another embarrassment for the GOP and another win for Poe’s Law . . .

Good to have you with us also! Amazing, isn't it? Wasting taxpayers' money reading this stuff in the Senate at all hours. Wonder how much he wasted? But then again, everything about this arrogant fuck is a complete waste anyway. At least people are having fun with it - at his expense.

I can't stop thinking of the GOP taking food from American people's mouths.

I do not like republicons,
Because their words are not their bond,
They’ll ship your children overseas,
To fight for “Peace and Liberty,"
Where bullets fly and bombs explode,
Where poor men’s kids their souls erode,

I pray they come back whole and clean,
Back from the hell the hate the mean,
And I wish our country sill could be,
The beacon of democracy,
To trodden folk across the seas,
The victims of wars, hate and greed.

Some child tonight she won’t be fed,
And she'll not sleep in a feather bed,
She won’t have pretty clothes and toys,
Like so many other girls and boys,
She won’t feel hunger in her sleep,
She’ll awake in the morning with little to eat.

I wish this didn’t have to be,
But in third world countries it’s reality,
In far away places like Tennessee,
Or perhaps next door to you or me,
This child makes the best of her horrid life,"
From day to day as she battles strife.

In our grand nation there’s still great need,
And with these few lines I will plant this seed,
Take the money we’d spend on those tanks and planes,
And let’s lift these hungry children from the stress and pain,
In the “Party of God” is there not one man,
Who will represent the little man?

who didn't like something he never tried and then suddenly liked it when he did.
